Question

read the following narrative prompt:
write an essay about cheese.
which of the choices below is the best implied thesis statement for the prompt?
\when cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say?\ – george carlin.
the history of cheese in different cultures.
home cheesemaking is a fun and rewarding hobby.
i’ve loved cheese since my first taste of goldfish crackers.

Explanation:

A thesis statement should present a main idea for the essay. The first option is a quote, not a thesis. The fourth is a personal anecdote. The third focuses on home cheesemaking, but the prompt is about writing an essay on cheese generally. The second option, "The history of cheese in different cultures," provides a focused topic (history across cultures) that can guide an essay about cheese, making it the best implied thesis.

Answer:

B. The history of cheese in different cultures.
